Quincy 253D80VCB23M

Quincy 253D80VCB23M is the QT Max 5 HP two-stage splash-lubricated compressor on an 80-gallon vertical tank, 230V three-phase. It is the same QT-5 pump and head as the Pro version (17.2 CFM at 175 PSI, 945 RPM, 50,000-hour pump life), but the Max package adds an air-cooled aftercooler, electronic auto tank drain, low-oil-level shutdown, and a magnetic starter wired to a Furnas overload. The ‘M’ suffix is Quincy’s part-number flag for the Max trim. Net weight increases roughly 30 lbs over the Pro because of the aftercooler heat exchanger and drain solenoid. Best fit is a slightly more demanding shop than the Pro target: paint and body shops in humid climates that need the aftercooler to keep moisture out of HVLP guns, or any shop that wants to forget about manual draining. Pump warranty is two years standard, extendable with the EWK kit. Quincy QT Max units ship from the Bay Minette, AL plant in 5-7 days with most retailers stocking depth.
